Enjoy The Unique Health Benefits Of Cheerleading

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — It’s the second full week into the New Year and those of you with resolutions to lose weight may already be getting a little bored. That’s why the WCCO Morning Show went tumbling into some unique workouts.

Jamie Yuccas found one that will have you cheering yourself on to lose weight.

Most of the people who head to Planet Spirit do so to train for cheerleading teams. But there are also classes for the whole family that combine cardio and a whole lot of fun.

It’s not about the pom-poms, pony tails or team spirit. It’s all about strength, burning calories and making the workout experience as enjoyable as possible.

Kids as young as 3 are found here, but anyone can try it for themselves.

The coaches not only work through warm-ups and routines. They teach teamwork, self-confidence and discipline. And even their most challenging routines leave students feeling strong and with a smile.

If you just want to learn the basics Planet Spirit, classes start at $50 a month. If your child or teen wants to join a team, it is more, but prices vary.
